Othello #2
It seems that Iago is a loner in the play. He schemes alone for his own benefit. He even manipulates Roderigo, lying to him to get him to call out Cassio. Iago isn't really friends with Roderigo; he's just using Roderigo as cover and a way to bring down Othello and Cassio. I think that he makes "friends" to better benefit himself. He states that he is on the good side of Othello, and says that this will better his attempts to bring Othello down. It's also strange that Iago's wife does not seem intimate at all to Iago. Iago is truly alone in this play.
